Sarah Foegen
Originally from Wisconsin, I discovered a passion for the hospitality industry early on. I worked in restaurants during high school and college while working towards my bachelor’s degree in hospitality management. During this time, I quickly developed a deep appreciation for customer service and guest experiences. Now, with over 15 years of experience in the marine industry, I strive to continue to bring that same passion and commitment to every aspect of the business and industry.
